I traded a 2012 P85 for the Ioniq 6 and I regret the decision every day. The P85 was starting to have a few issues so I traded it in. My overall experience, not even including the charge post overheat issue I had, was that driving the car was like death by a thousand paper cuts. So many things...

The Ioniq 6 is OK if you can live with the risks involved: 1) ICCU failures 2) 12v battery goes dead 3) Charge port overheats level 2 charging at 40 amps and higher

The entire E-GMP line (Ioniq 5, Ioniq 6, Kia EV6 and Genesis GV60) all have a few issues, 1) ICCU failures 2) 12v battery goes dead 3) Charge port overheats level 2 charging at 40 amps and higher I finally sold my Ioniq 6 at a loss because of the charge port overheat issue. The car reduces...

My 2012 MS has a 40 amp limit and my Gen 1 Mobile Connector has a max of 40 amps so a wall connector would only offer 8 more amps (if my car could accept higher). Do the newer newer models accept a higher rate? I think I have seen 16kW advertised at destination chargers - that would be around 70...

I thought the wall connector required a 60 amp circuit, can you run it on less?

My commute is 40 miles per day in Phoenix (AC runs most of the year) and I charge from a NEMA 14-50 on my Mobile Connector charging 60% to 70% most of the time. Replenish of my charge takes only 2-3 hours at a low 20 amp setting. 120 volt L1 charging is a waste of time and energy, but is a last...
